Towards the end of last week, we were looking more in depth into the foundations of public speaking. We discovered and studied the new concepts of the words:
- Ethos – the self, establish credibility, establish strong character, community, trust
- Pathos – evokes emotions: happiness, fear, sadness, anger, “coolness,” etc.
- Logos - based on logic and reasoning, statistics, things that “make sense”
Your Task Today: Over the weekend, your homework was to identify and be able to discuss ethos, pathos, and logos’ role in your life. For today’s blog entry, you are going to explain how these three rhetorical appeals impact you. What to Include:

- The Medium in which this was displayed (TV Commercial, Speech, Billboard, etc.)
- An Explanation of how Ethos, Pathos, and Logos were present
- An Explanation of how Ethos, Pathos, and Logos impacted this thing
Rubric Proficient – analysis is a minimum of 10 sentences, provides an in-depth look into the significance of ethos, pathos, and logos, provides clear and logical examples, is well-written Non-Proficient – less than 10 sentences, does not provide in-depth look into significance, examples are unclear or illogical

State Farm commercial
Pathos is in the commercial where the guy jumps on the tree branch and it brakes onto the guys car. This has to do with pathos because he makes you scared that it could happen to you and you wont be covered with the insurance you have. It is also Logos because it is logical that you want this insurance because you dont want your car to be destroyed, and not get covered for it. In every commercial their is Ethos, Pathos, and Logos. It is just another term for sales. If I can master this I'll be a million air!!! Muhahahahahaaaa, all the money is mineeee.
i know that ethos has to do with your self building and trust wich shapes a persons character. pathos has to do with emotions within wether it's happy, mad or sad. and logos is all about logic we use logic when ever we have to comprehend things. i feel that logos is the most used because we have to understand things every day but the one people need to better understand is pathos. i feel if people get in touch with their emotions and not put up barriers than things in life will b much smoother.
During my weekend i was mostly outside but when i was in my house watching tv i saw something good. It was a commercial and it is on the topic today. This commercial was about a girl who took a gulp of this soda and went wild. she was dancing in the street on a boat and at a party.i think in my own opinion this goes with ethos pathos and logos. But its not all but one of them. That one has to be ethos. no i say this becauseshe expresses herself and trusts herself to do this. But if it was me i would have not even of done it. So she also has courage.
This weekend I used Ethos Pathos and Logos because I was trying to get my friend to let me stay over her house.I used pathos beacuse I was trying to make her feel bad because I had'nt spent time with her in such a long time. Also I used logos because she was trying to tell me that I could just come over early so I said why not just let me stay so I wont have to walk back and forth all weekend. And I also used Ethos because I told her even though we like each other I would control myself so that way we dont break her parents trust. I can assume my use of Ethos Pathos and Logos worked because I stayed the whole weekend over there.
Over the weekend, as i watched the television, i noticed various numbers of ethos, pathos and logos being used. Commercials gave it all away. There was a commercial with an ad, that gives you a number to specific place. It is to donate a $1 to an foreign child. This shows pathos because it is emotional to see a child without. In another commercial, i seen logos. The commercial explained how to use an item called vagisil. Everything is logic. It has a paragraph of writing on the back. Any person with common sense would read it to know. The last commercial i seen was ethos. It was the movie I Am Legend coming on channel TBS. It reminded me of myself. He had so much confidence in what he was fighting for and so do i.
I saw a ad for sundrop. Sundrop is a new soda. It was a tv commercial. It was ethos. The commercial was saying be like these people drink sundrop and you will dance. It was also logos. Its called sundrop and its logic it would be out in the sun. It impacted ethos so you would trust the girl. It impacted logos because its logical they named it sundrop and its filmed on a beach in the sun.
ETHOS, PATHOS&LOGOS in our lives
*Ethos-When I do something smart, I build character to become a better student and person. that can change another person by showing them the righty thing to do.
*Pathos-I saw a commercial about animals being abused and that made me feel sad. That people would abuse an animal that didn't mean to walk in front of them. They don't know that you are mad or sad. This can change if you show yourself that you don't need to beat the dog/cat to death just because it got in your way. think about how that animal makes you happy about how soft their fur is or if they are like a little kid.
*Logos-I saw a poster in my geometry class that said,"If their is a problem, fix because it won't fix it self." That is logic reason because a poster just sits their&you can do a lot of things. If there is a problem, you have to fix it before it gets worse. This can change because people will think about they do wrong in life&will change their ways by doing the opposite of what they used to do...
MADISON DEL ROSSI
Over this weekend I used ethos, pathos, and logos. I used ethos by convincing my mom to trust me with a large amount of money. I knew it was ethos because I had my mom convinced that she could trust me. Pathos was used when my mom was flipping through the channels on tv and found a soap opera. There were so many emotions being used, sadness, happiness, betrayal, ect. It was pathos because the people were displaying emotions left and right. I discovered logos while I was on the computer. I saw banner ads for saving money on home owners insurence if you switched to their company. I knew it was logos because of the numbers and statistics. It also said that you could save up to $500.00.
This weekend i experienced pathos. Because i told my little brother that if he didn't shut up i would push him down the stares. So I used pathos. Because i tried to put fear in him. So i believe it worked. Because he did not say anything else after that.He already knew i would do it.So by already knowing he shut his mouth and I went back in to my room.So by knowing I put that fear in him. I know how to make him get scared, mad, happy, and even angry. But I would be ignorant to use this to my advantage. Just like one day I used ethos, and I told my brother your not gonna get in trouble just go out side. So when my dad got home nd sen him out side he ran around the house. So when my dad finally caught him he got punished. So this time I used it as like a trust . Like trust me you won't get in to trouble . But instead he really did get into trouble.
Fluffo! The commercial for Fluffo, the best shortening on the market, is an example of Logos. This shortening is great for frying chicken, making pies and cakes, and can be bought in two different sizes. The facts were stated in the commercial that I listed above. This commercial is also a great example of Ethos! It tries to convince you that if you buy this product you’ll have a fabulously great marriage. Also, it can inspire wives to cook better by showing the stereo type wife. Fluffo inspires a good marriage, GREAT fried chicken. This product is low priced and comes in two sizes. Buy Now!!!
• The Title that I pic was the save the children foundation. I picked this because it has basically all three of the things in it.
The Medium in which this was displayed was in a TV commercial. it was a commercial about how there are kids in this world that need your help. It shows young kids that have no way of life.
Pathos - Kids that by seeing how they live give u pathos because you’re feeling really get hurt when you see it. It hurts you because compared to how u live they really have nothing but we still don’t appreciate what we got.
Ethos- the way they use ethos is by how they are in the tv commercial. They say that you can trust them to come help them with the kids to give them better life. Send money to come feed the need how we can trust that even a little bit of money can help many in the world.
Logos- They use logos by the way the use the kids in the pictures that they take. The way that they live showijn what they do in life. The way that they are livin how they really don’t have any food or water to live and how they let the kids tell there story about how they live and how they have to take care of there brothers and stuff because they don’t have no parents.
How I saw Ethos, Pathos, and Logos
I now notice that when I watch T.V., The cmmercials use a lot of ethos, pathos and logos. For example, I see advertisments for lawyers, and they use ethos. They're like, "I know what it's like to be conned by the government so I can help you." Also I notice car insurance commercials use logos. They give all these statistics about how their insurance is better than the other insurance. The army commericals use pathos. I think the intention is to make you feel patriotic and prideful of you country. However it makes me feel angry because all the army does invade weaker countries. All of these commercials do have an effect on people because of ethos pathos and logos. So it's smart of them to be knowlageable of these things.
Ethos was when my mom gave me $30 to order food for the house when I was babysitting. She trusted me with her money to buy food and not stupid stuff. She also trusted me to watch all 3 kids.
Pathos was when I saw this commercial yesterday. It was a Dr. Miricle commercial. It showed a girl with big and really nappy hair then it showed her hair after the relaxer and her hair was long, straight, and shiny. It was trying to scare woman into buying their product. Like making them scared of having nappy hair.
Logos was thses little funny stories my cousin told me one of them was if there is a one story house the ceilling is blue, the walls are green, and the floor is pink. What color is the sairs? The answer would be that its a one story house it has no stairs! That is logic.
Hanes unwear commercial ethos is in the commercial where their a person is on the plane with Micheal Jordan and he is talking to him telling him that his underwear is not coming up your legs. Or even when he is telling Jordan that his underwear is just like his and also he is just like him. In that commercial ethos is being played because of micheal jordan is a celabrtiy and if he is weraing them so should eveyone else.
Over the weekend i went paintballing with my team and used all three elements of the Rhetorical Triangle.I didnt have my gun but i knew someone would be nice enought to lend me theirs.An example of Pathos:me and a few of my teammates have our ups and downs but that doesnt change how we are a team and we learn to all get along.Losing a game gets us very fustrated at eachother but winning one has us jumping for joy.An example of Ethos:someone letting me use there $1200 gun knowing one wrong dive could put that gun in pieces.i am very cautious with other peoples equipment but im glad someone trust me enough to let me use there gun.An example of Logos:People have been in my shoes to where they dont have a gun and asked me if i can lend them mines.i am nice enough to give in...
Ethos, Pathos, and Logos on Japan
People in japan are dying, this is Pathos to the people in America because we are next to die! If the U.S doesn't help Japan control the nuclear catastrefy we will be affected one time or another. This is Ethos because it will effect the whole world as a community. It is also Logos because its logic to helpl them or we will die along with many smart japanesse people. We must help now, nowwwww!
Hello everyone, over the weekend I was assigned a homework that involves ethos, logo, and pathos. I saw and heared so may different examples that I don't even know were to begin. Also, I used them as well like ethos I told my mother "to let me go out so I can help my fiancee with the storage". She replied with "no because I wount be home in time" so I responded by "mom can you trust me I will be home in time I am responsible especially when it comes to my education for my future. Then all of a sudden ethos wored and I did what i had to do. I watched some tv and saw a MAARINES commercial and ARMY. They all used pathos very well because it made me feel as in I can have a great career it inspired me to do well for my self. Their were so many commercials on tv most of them used these technics very well and some were just a waist of time to even look at. These are good to us when you want to persuade others or have it your way. Look itno the great strategies they are great to us in your everyday life.
how i saw ethos, pathos and logos over the weekend.
first i saw a commercial from the navy asking people to join them over seas to help fight for our honor.the commercial used ethos because they are reaching out to the community.
then i used logos to reason with my mom to let my cousin come over the house.
then i used pathos because i was losing in a game and i got angry.
I believe that pathos is like a commerical that tells fifteen minutes could save you fifteen percent or more on car ensaurence.this is what pathos is cause it makes you think that you'll save alot of money if you talk to them.it can also be logos because it is logical that you could want this insaurence becuase you don't wont to lose money. and not be able to get it back.
